PRODUCT DESIGN LEADERSHIP | STRATEGY | DESIGN FOR HUMANS
Brett Polonsky
I build design teams that ship better products, faster. I turn tangled problems into experiences people actually want to use.
I'm at my best when design is under-leveraged: when talented people aren't getting the influence, structure, or standards to do their best work. I fix that by building the team, the practice, and the relationships.
That’s when the adventure begins.
My Latest Book
IsMs: 100 Sharp Reflections on Work, Life and the Chaos in Between.
Sharp, unfiltered observations paired with short, punch-in-the-gut reflections on leadership, awareness, decision-making, and the absurdity we call life.
Each IsM starts with a statement, bold, blunt, or a little bizarre, followed by a brief unpacking that turns the idea over, shakes it, and dares you to look closer, and ends with a sharp “punchline”, there to add a little humor and a final touch.
Perfect for:
Leaders tired of sugar-coated advice
People who think personal development could use more bite
Anyone who likes their wisdom straight up, no BS
